I grew up in Flint, Michigan and honestly they probably don't get a lot of calls from that area, since they are not on the air up north... but seriously... you don't call black dudes "Cuz..." up north it's offensive. I can't remember why, but it's kind of like... downgrading someone. Not majorly, but my black friends didn't particularly like it.
25 is actually showing LOTS of restraint.

But I guess there is some sort of context where that term is insulting. You can't blame Bubba though, he doesn't know this shit.

Well there was the Detroit Bubbapalooza, and the split second he was on that jobber low power station. He's got a decent amount of listeners in Michigan, at least he did in the Sirius days.
Bubba would do good in Michigan; a lot of my friends up there listened to him on Sirius.

25 does sort of compounded his issues here without having a real clear reason why he doesn't like it. But you tell Bubba to back down...you get a situation like this.
Also Bubba doesn't need slang to make him "cool," it's what he says and does on his show that will attract the black community. His slang actually makes him look awkward at best.
